Kesha came out to Hollywood with a dollar and a dream — and she's certainly been through the ringer on her journey to fame.

Appearing on CBS This Morning, the Praying songstress read a letter she penned to her 18-year-old self about the trials and tribulations ahead of her.

The 30-year-old penned:

"Dear Kesha, At this very moment you may be wondering whether it was really a good idea to drop out of high school. I moved to L.A. with nothing but your grandpa's Lincoln Town Car and a demo tape. I've got good news — and I've got bad news — and I know you're a tad impatient, so I'll start with the good news: You made it! And thank God because the best plan B we ever came up with was waitressing, and as you will soon find out, that was not really our forte."

On Wednesday, Kesha broke down when Robin Roberts asked about the meaning of her lead single Praying, which is said to be a response to producer Dr. Luke, whom the singer accused of sexual assault and emotional abuse.

While recording this new album was hugely cathartic, Kesha still has a rainbow of emotions inside her — and she let it out in her haunting performances!
